Rewards of Working at Yolo Hospice

If you’re just looking for a job, you can stop reading now. But if you’re looking for the experience of a lifetime, read on.

Yolo Hospice is a community-founded and community-grounded nonprofit with a nearly 40-year track record as experts in caring for people with a life-limiting illness. We were founded by volunteers who wanted to revolutionize healthcare for their community, and that spirit still drives us today.

We look for staff who are passionate about, and seasoned in, end-of-life care, with superb communication skills. The right fit is community-conscious, focused on quality healthcare management, and eager for challenging career enrichment opportunities.

Many of our key quality indicators exceed state and national averages, including our Bereavement program, which consistently scores among the top in the nation. We are the only hospice in Sacramento that is a member of the National Partnership for Hospice Innovation, and one of only four organizations chosen to participate in Partnership HealthPlan of California’s Palliative Care Pilot Program. We have a Four Star Veterans Program in partnership with We Honor Veterans.

We are committed to quality and community service, and serve as a critical safety net for our community’s most vulnerable members.
